Read our privacy policy A West Ham fan “partied with the entire team” outside a hotel in Prague following the club’s historic European title win. So many tears were shed, my eyes included Jonathan Blakeley, West Ham United fan Of the match itself, Mr Blakeley said: “Basically, last night was for all West Ham fans, especially of my generation, one that’s never seen us win a major trophy, the greatest moment we’ve ever witnessed. “I never thought I’d see West Ham in Europe, let alone with a European title, so the feeling is unreal and definitely hasn’t sunk in.” Mr Blakeley, who watched the game from the fan park in Letna, Prague, added it was an “incredible atmosphere” and “so many tears were shed, my eyes included”. Shortly before the end of the match, the English club put out a statement condemning the behaviour of a “small number of individuals”, adding: “These actions have no place in football, and do not in any way represent the values of our football club and the overwhelming majority of our supporters, who have behaved impeccably in Prague this week and throughout our last two seasons in European competition.” The club said they would work with police to review the incident and take action against offenders, including implementing lifetime bans.
